abillybob Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 An upgradable phone, being able to swap out individual components to upgrade your mobile device is an idea I certainly welcome. What do you guys think? Google's Project Ara lets you build your own phone (hands-on pictures) - CNET
Arreks Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Sounds like Google are jumping on the bandwagon, I've heard of a couple of companies planning on releasing modular phones this year but the concept of modular phones was started by Phonebloks I believe(?) and I'd much rather help them than Google! *Edit* Turns out Phonebloks is partnered with Motorola, who are partnered with Google.. the more you know.

X-13 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Turns out Phonebloks is partnered with Motorola, who are partnered with Google.. the more you know. It's even more complicated that that... Phonebloks partnered with Motorola for Project Ara... Who then got bought by Google... Then sold to Lenovo. But Google kept Project Ara, because it's cool.
